Laine Carr, the twenty-year-old daughter, receives a letter from a wealthy girl with whom she roomcd at a houseparty, saying that she is coming through their city and would like to stop by for a three-day visit.

Aunt Lucinda Carr, having lost all her money and property is making her home with them. A lawyer comes searching for a Lucinda Carr, who is heir to a large fortune. Aunt Lucinda, having misplaced her ear-phone, answers all his ques- tions regarding her ancestors with a Yes, so he gives her a check for SS0,000. The Carrs go on a spending spree, buying expensive furniture and clothes. A manufacturer comes to town and Mr. Carr borrows a large sum from Aunt Lucinda to produce his invention. Then the lawyer re- turns and demands the money, saying that Miss Carr misrepresented the facts. She is not the rightful heir and he is going to sue if they don't return the money. After the visitor departs, the men arrive to take the furniture. The manufacturer comes to see Mr. Carr and proposes to Aunt Lucinda. Laine Carr and Don Drennen, the manufacturer's son, decide to make it a double ceremony. The news arrives that Mr. Carr's invention will be a success. Everything turns out well for the wacky Carrs in the end! CAST Herman Carr Duane Tremba Mr. J.

Although many of its members had had no previous musical experience, they have made rapid progress in performing such numbers as Stars and Stripes Foreverf, Easy Steps March, and patriotic songs. W'e are proud of this new organization and hope the band becomes one of our favorite and necessary school activities.

The Band participated in the Christmas program, in assemblies, in P.T.A. meetings, and in other com- munity activities. -43-
